Leonard Cohen - You Want It Darker

Given the subject matter addressed in the title and other tracks on You Want It Darker and Leonard Cohen's advanced age (82), he wrote some of songs solo, and others with Sharon Robinson and Patrick Leonard. In declining health, and required to sing from a medically designed chair, Cohen enlisted his son Adam to produce the record.

Cohen's sepulchral voice expresses a wealth of emotion. He is weathered but defiant in acknowledging failures, regrets, brokenness, and even anger. Typically, redemption arrives in these songs with unflinching honesty.

Heavyweight vinyl produced by Columbia Records. Gatefold sleeve.
